Nothing has ever commanded my respect more than someone's ability to run a good meeting. I'll never forget the first time I participated in a well run one. A VP named Keith kept things running, on topic, and when a tangent threatened to take over the meeting he calmly scheduled a side meeting to flesh it out without occupying the rest of the group.

I didn't even know such a thing was possible. I've tried to emulate his style ever since.
